Our Role in the Peer-to-Peer Lending Program

You agree that any transaction under the Peer-to-peer Lending Program is done directly between the Lender and Borrower and we do not participate and do not assume any liability in such loan transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, we only carry out specific roles in the Peer-to-peer Lending Program, which are described below:

providing an online Platform for the matching of potential Borrowing Requests of Borrowers and Lending Offers of Lenders;

managing documentation;

facilitating settlement including Events of Default;

facilitating custody of collateral; and

administration of settlement and custody.

All Loan Contracts are subject to these Terms of Service and your acceptance of these Terms of Service also constitutes your acceptance of any Loan Contract issued for a Loan between one or more counterparties and you, in a Peer-to-peer loan transaction in accordance with Agreement.

We shall act as agents for the Lender(s) and Borrower(s) in relation to the Loan Contract, acting in accordance with the tasks outlined in this Agreement.

You acknowledge that the effective and efficient functioning of the Peer-to-peer Lending Program is subject to all parties to a Loan Contract strictly complying with these Terms of Service and further specific instructions thereto sent by us.

Failure to timely settle any obligations under the Peer-to-Peer Lending Program can have material financial consequences to the other parties involved in the transaction or the settlement thereof for, which you may be held liable.

We may impose limits on the minimum and maximum amounts, minimum and maximum aggregate amounts, maximum number of transactions and maximum aggregate number, of transactions outstanding under the Peer-to-peer Lending Program at any point in time. Such limits may be changed at our sole discretion based on (but not limited to) factors such as past performance and available cash balances in the peer-to-peer client account.

Matching of Lending Offers and Borrowing Request

Offers and requests are matched either manually by accepting existing lending offers or borrowing requests or automatically by posting lending offers or borrowing request into the platform.

Automatic matching of lending offers and borrowing requests happens once a request and offer are identified by our systems as an exact match based on currency, start date, tenor and interest rate. Such matching will be made in a first-in, first-out basis.

Transferability

Save as provided for in this Agreement, rights, undertakings, agreements, duties, liabilities and/or obligations arising from a Loan Contract cannot be transferred to any party, without the prior written consent of all parties involved including Silver Bullion.

Borrowing under the Peer-to-Peer Lending Program

Submitting a Borrowing Request

An eligible S.T.A.R. Storage Customer may borrow under the program by submitting a Borrowing Request or accepting an existing Lending Offer.

Upon submission of the Borrowing Request, the Collateral Parcel(s) used as collateral for that loan will be temporarily locked. The Borrower will, from that moment onwards not be entitled and not be allowed to sell or take delivery of these locked Collateral Parcels until the Borrowing Request is cancelled (if request is unmatched).

Once a match takes place and a Loan Contract created, we will hold a first priority security interest by way of a first fixed charge on any locked Collateral Parcel and we shall be entitled to assign such security interest in the Collateral Parcel to any third party at any time and at our sole discretion, for the duration of the loan.

Subject to clause 13.1.3 of this Agreement, the Borrower agree that such lien prohibits the Borrower from selling or taking delivery of the Collateral Parcel until the Loan Contract is repaid in full.

At Loan Start Date, the Loan Contract amount will be credited to your Peer-to-Peer Account and upon your request, transferred to your Linked Bank Account and/or used in settlement for other liabilities you may have towards Silver Bullion.

We shall release a locked Collateral Parcel with immediate effect in the event a Loan Contract has been repaid, denied, cancelled, or to enable a Liquidation Sale.

Early Repayment

The Borrower is entitled to make an early repayment (full repayment) of the Loan Contract by giving Silver Bullion an early repayment notice via e-mail or secure notification on the Silver Bullion Website. Partial repayment of the Loan Contract is not allowed.

The early repayment of the Loan Contract will become effective one (1) business day after the full outstanding loan balance, including the full interest and any fees due is received from the Borrower. The locked Collateral Parcel will be released with immediate effect after the full repayment of the amount due.

Loan Maturity, Repayment and Roll-Over

The principal amount and/or interest and charges shall be due and payable on or before the relevant Due Dates stated in the Loan Contract.

As an alternative to sending funds at on or before the relevant Due Dates, or if you unable to do so in time, you can "roll-over" a Loan Contract, pending availability, by obtaining a new loan from a lender based on offered terms. Loans can be rolled-over up to 1 hour before the relevant Due Dates.

You agree that funds must be in your Peer-to-Peer Account by 12:01 AM SGT on the relevant Due Dates. Should funds in your Peer-to-Peer Account be insufficient to cover your loan commitment by 12:01 AM SGT on the relevant Due Dates, such deficiency will be considered as Late Payment and subject to clause 15.1 of this Agreement.

Repayment through Collateral Liquidation

The Borrower may request for the Repayment through Collateral Liquidation of the Loan Contract by giving Silver Bullion a repayment notice via e-mail or secure notification on the Silver Bullion Website.

By requesting for a Repayment through Collateral Liquidation, the Borrower accepts and authorises Silver Bullion as the Agent to:

Request for a Loan Advance (subject to clause 15.2) to fully repay the Loan Contract and effect the lien release for the locked Collateral Parcel; and

Immediately initiate the sale of the released Collateral Parcel and use the proceeds of the sale to repay the principal amount and all financing charges of the Loan Advance.

Any amount in excess of the amount due to from the Loan Advance shall be credited to the account of the Borrower.

Lending under the Peer-to-Peer Lending Program

Submitting a Lending Offer

An eligible S.T.A.R. Storage Customer may lend under the program by submitting a Lending Offer or accepting an existing Borrowing Request.

Upon submission of a Lending Offer, the equivalent amount will be temporarily locked as reserve funds from your Peer-to-Peer Account. From that moment onwards, you will not be allowed to withdraw or make use of the reserve funds until the Lending Offer is cancelled (if offer is unmatched).

Once a Lending Offer is matched and a Loan Contract created, you acknowledge that you shall not be entitled to cancel a Loan Contract or demand for early repayment, save for those provided under this Agreement.

Lender Warranties and Acknowledgement

Late Payment, Loan Advance and Default

Late Payment and Sweeper Fund

In order to limit the knock-on effects of Late Payments, the Borrowers and Lenders agree that in case of a Late Payment by the Borrower, Silver Bullion is entitled (but not obliged) to appoint a substitute party (“Sweeper”) to temporarily finance the shortfall and fund and effect the payment on behalf of the Borrower.

The Borrower agrees that a Late Payment Penalty as published on our Website will be due from the Borrower should the temporary financing be extended by the Sweeper to cover any shortfall by the Borrower on the relevant Due Dates.

When funds for Late Payments are eventually credited to the designated P2P Client Bank Account, these funds will be credited to, or set-off against, any of such temporary advances made by the Sweeper including any late payment penalties as described in this section.

The Sweeper is entitled to choose to be subrogated into the rights of the Borrower whose settlement the Sweeper is making funds available for in the manner set out in this section.

Loan Advance

Loan Contracts have fixed start and end dates. To bridge the period between the Loan Contract creation and the next Loan Start Date, a Borrower may request the Sweeper for a Loan Advance for a sum not exceeding the amount receivable on the next Loan Start Date.

A Borrower may also request the same Loan Advance facility to facilitate a Repayment through Collateral Liquidation under clause 13.4.

By requesting a Loan Advance, the Borrower pledges the proceeds of the Loan Contract or in the case of Repayment though Collateral Liquidation, pledges the proceeds of the sale of the Collateral Parcel for the repayment of the Loan Advance principal amount and all financing charges (0.50% of the Loan Advance amount) to the Sweeper.

The Borrower also accepts and authorises Silver Bullion as the Agent to use the proceeds from the sale of the security in clause 13.4 above, to repay the principal amount and all financing charges to the Sweeper. Any amount in excess of the amount due to the Lender shall be credited to the account of the Borrower.

You also acknowledge that the Sweeper will not be a guarantor for any amounts due from Borrowers.

Events of Borrower Default

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the outstanding loan balance, including the full interest, fees and any penalties shall become due and demandable. As a consequence thereof, we may:

demand for the immediate repayment of the outstanding loan balance, consisting of the principal, full interest and penalties (if any);

sell all or part of the locked Collateral Parcels, with or without your approval and with or without previous demand, notice, or advertisement, in any way as we deem fit; and

take any other action permitted by law, including, without limitation, pursuing any remedy against you or against any guarantor, together or separately and in any order, in any court having jurisdiction.

repay the lender for the outstanding loan balance including full interest.

An Event of Default includes, but is not limited to any event where:

the Late Payment under clause 13.3 of this Agreement remained unpaid for more than thirty (30 days);

the Borrower fails to repay and/or return the principal and/or interest and/or charges on or before the agreed repayment date, all as specified in the Loan Contract;

the Borrower fails to comply with any of the provisions in the Loan Document(s), and such breach is not remedied within 10 business days or the earlier of:

us notifying you of the breach and the remedy required; or

you becoming aware of the breach.

for the avoidance of doubt, such a breach includes any representation, warranty or statement made, repeated or deemed made by you in, or pursuant to, the Loan Documents being (or proved to have been) incomplete, untrue, incorrect or misleading in any material respect;

when you grant, assign or attempt to grant or assign a security interest in the Collateral to any other party;

when you stop or suspend payment of any of your debts, or are unable to pay your debts as they fall due;

when the value of your assets is less than its liabilities (technical bankruptcy);

when any action, proceedings, procedure or step is taken for:

the suspension of payments, a moratorium of any indebtedness, winding up, dissolution, administration or reorganisation (using a voluntary arrangement, scheme of arrangement or otherwise) or your bankruptcy;

the composition, compromise, assignment or arrangement with any creditor;

the appointment of a liquidator, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator, compulsory manager or other similar officer in respect of you or any of your assets; or

when you commence negotiations, or enter into any composition, compromise, assignment or arrangement, with one or more creditors with a view to rescheduling any of your indebtedness because of actual or anticipated financial difficulties;

when any provision of the Loan documents is or becomes, for any reason, invalid, unlawful, unenforceable, terminated, disputed or ceases to be effective or to have full force and effect;

when you repudiate or show an intention to repudiate the Terms of Service; or

when any event occurs (or circumstances exist) which, in our reasonable opinion, has or is likely to materially and adversely affect your ability to perform all or any of your obligations under, or otherwise comply with the terms of the Loan Contract.

Receipt of funds in the designated Silver Bullion bank account on a date later than the dates specified under this 13.3 will be considered Late Payments and these will strictly incur late payment penalty fees in accordance with the Schedule of Charges as updated from time to time on our Website.

If any payment becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the Due Date of such payment will be brought forward to the last business day before the original Due Date

At Loan Start Date, the Loan Contract amount will be credited to your Peer-to-Peer Account and upon your request, transferred to your Linked Bank Account and/or used in settlement for other liabilities you may have towards Silver Bullion.

Collateral Liquidation Event

Should the value of the Collateral Parcels fall below the Liquidation Threshold or should an Event of Default occur and the borrower fail to make immediate repayment of the outstanding loan balance, a Liquidation Event will occur.

Should a Liquidation Event occur, the Collateral Parcels will be sold back to us or such other parties as we deem fit at the prevailing buyback rate. Any excess proceeds realised from a Liquidation Sale after taking into account the Loan principal, full interest, late payment charge and any other charges or fees will be credited to your Peer-to-Peer Account. We expressly disclaim making any representation or warranty as to the future value of the Collateral Parcels.

The Liquidation Threshold is set at 110% of the total of the Loan Principal, Interest, and Admin Fee. If circumstances necessitate (e.g. as a consequence of high volatility), we may, for new contracts change the default percentage.

Any Collateral Valuations carried out by us are based on a product sum of the metal mass of the Collateral Parcels multiplied by the prevailing prices. The Company may, at its sole discretion, also make reference to indicators such as LBMA AM Gold Price, Silver Price, LPPM AM Platinum, Palladium Price, or LME Cash Price as a basis of valuation.
